Windows 2003 DC disappeared from netwwork view
My DC rebooted after an auto update a few nights ago and has now disappeared
in the network map from all Vista machines on the domain. However, shares mapped to the DC still work, but browsing does not since the machine no longer is visible. Interestingly, none of the Vista machines appear in Network Neighborhood on the DC either. Any ideas on this? Probably will turn out to be a group policy or other domain setting issue, but giving it a shot here.

No event log entries of interest. Restarted browser on DC, no change.
I did note something I missed before. Network Neighborhood on the DC no longer even shows itself, never mind the Vista computers. Vista computers show each other and other network devices, but no DC.
